All Chapters of YOU WILL NEVER BE MY GOD, FELIX.: Chapter 61 - Chapter 68

🦋 BENITA CELESTINE 🦋 I lay spread out across the bed, my body sinking into the mattress as my mind drifted back to yesterday's events. The memory of Felix's words still lingered, echoing in my thoughts like a gentle hum. "Benita Celestine… Will you marry me?" He had said, his voice filled with emotion and sincerity.As I replayed the moment in my head, a mix of emotions boiled inside me. Excitement and joy wrestled with uncertainty and doubt. I thought about the future, about what this proposal could mean for us, and about the possibilities that lay ahead.My gaze wandered around the room, but my attention remained inward, lost in the jungle of my thoughts. As I lay there, the weight of the proposal settled upon me. It was a promise, a commitment, and a new chapter in our lives. My heart raced at the thought, and I couldn't help but smile, feeling a sense of anticipation and hope.Eventually, my thoughts began to untangle, and I realised that I was still lying on the bed, lost in y

🦋 BENITA CELESTINE 🦋 I turned around the bed, inhaling and exhaling sharply, unable to sleep.No matter how hard I tried not to let whatever she said bother me, it still did. “I really have my own problems right now,” I whispered to myself, sitting up.Things in my life were moving too fast, and I didn't want to add to it, but all of a sudden, a family that I didn't know exist in this world suddenly appeared, claiming to need my help, and honestly, I couldn't stop thinking about it.“So…” Nikita stated as she kicked my door open, “Who was that stranger?”I sighed, looking in her direction, “She's not a stranger; she’s my sister.”“You have a sister?” Nikita asked in shock.I nodded. “I'm only just finding out myself.”Nikita's lips formed an O. “What does she want? You said your stepmother kicked you out.”I sighed again. “Yes, but now the family has gone bankrupt and is in debt, so my stepmother wants to use my half-sister to settle the debt by marrying her off to a man who beats

🦋 BENITA CELESTINE 🦋 The police officer walked out of the office a few minutes later, and we puffed out a sigh of relief.Greg and Nikita also followed, awkwardly avoiding each other, but that was not the most important thing we should be worried about.“We no longer need to speak to you, police officer,” Greg announced, facing Scott. “We settled our differences.”“Yes, we did… we definitely did,” Nikita added, and they both walked out of the station.Scott laughed awkwardly and faced the police captain. “Seems they wouldn't be needing my help; they settled! I guess my break is back on.”We walked out of the police station, and Scott gawked at me anxiously. “Do you think they got it? With the way they are avoiding each other, I think something happened. Do you think they had a bigger fight this time?”I inhaled sharply. “We'll find out when we get to my apartment, but they'd better have that file.”*** 🦋 ***We drove in silence towards my apartment; neither Greg nor Nikita spoke t

🦋 BENITA CELESTINE 🦋 I burst through the front door of my apartment, panic and fear pushing me forward. I slammed the door shut behind me and frantically locked it, double-checking to make sure it was secure. My hands trembled as I rushed to close all the windows, the sound of the locks clicking into place.Breathless and shaking, I retreated to a corner in my room, my eyes darting around the space as if searching for an escape or a hiding place. My phone slipped from my pocket, and I clutched it tightly, my fingers trembling as I tried to steady myself.With shaky hands, I dialled Felix's number, my heart racing as I waited for him to answer. The silence in the room was oppressive, and I strained to hear any sound that might signal danger. My voice was barely above a whisper as I waited for Felix on the other end to pick up.Felix picked up on the second ring, and I whispered into the phone with a shaky breath, “Felix, she's here,” I murmured, fearing she might hear me and trace m
